V1 Laser triggers?

heres a kinda fun experiment..
as a new valentine one owner, other than what is mentioned in the manual,
chev trailblazer tail lights) what have you found that triggers the laser reading
on the V1 specificly so we know what to look for on the road..
for me I have found these:

-climate control display
-laser adaptive cruise from late model infintiy FX35

I see Infinities trigger the V1 when they are behind you. I believe this is due to the radar in their front bumper for the cruise control or something like that. I also get Laser false alarms on vehicles equipped with spoilers with LED that go across it.

yea like i said, i was in front of a FX35 for over 100 miles getting continious laser falses every time it functioned. (they have LASER) not radar based adaptive cruise.

i finally had it and left him in the dust. I couldnt mute it or change it because police mainly use lidar/ laser on these highways. I didnt want him screwing my readings
